My new phD psychologist seems to think he is qualified to be an MD by talking about meds with me. I went to new T because of anxiety. He tells me it's because I take Ambien (that my primary doc prescribes) as my new T says anxiety is a rebound effect. T never bothered to ask how long I've been seeing my MD primary physician (7 years)or what meds we have already tried to help me sleep. I resent my psychologist brushing my mental illness problems off to nothing but Ambien. Also I don't know how Cognitive Behavior Therapy my new T believes in can help with anything deeper than learning to behave properly in polite society. T had a great write up on his web page but now seems to be a dud. Let medicine stay in the hands of the MD physician and Psychotherapy stay with the psychologist.
